Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

I know what you're thinking, how can an impression video really be that good, and be worth 24 seconds of my time when over 100 hours of video is uploaded to YouTube every minute?

Bear with me though, as this one is pretty special.

It sees a guy give his version of a "super excited" girl (the kind of L.A mall dweller cliché type you might find on MTV), the voice being so different from his usual tones that it's as if it is coming from a completely different person.

You immediately want to cry 'fake!', but if it is a lip sync it's a pretty damn perfect one, though after effects can't be ruled out either.

The clip could so easily have been swallowed up amongst the many thousands of impressions on YouTube, but was picked up on Reddit and has attracted over 200,000 views in under 24 hours.
